Poison Ivy



Here's one invasive species that I wish didn't grow so well in Huron County. The roadside park south of Cedar Bluff is filled with poison ivy again this summer. Over on Geiger Road near our farm there are areas of the roadside that are covered with poison ivy.

This photo was taken in June of 2009 down at the roadside park. The curl of the three leaved ivy is apparent. It's a lovely plant, but a nightmare to deal with when it gets on your skin or when you breathe the smoke of burning ivy plants.
